Alyssah's 4th Birthday Party

Alyssah's 4th birthday drug out FOREVER! We had 2 small celebrations with the grandmas and grandpas, and then we went to Minot to get her cake and to take her to Space Aliens for her birthday supper. Then she had her party with her cousins and her friends. Then she had her actual birthday. Boy was I glad when she was all done with her birthday!! So here are the umpteen million pictures of her birthday!! I still can't believe she is 4!! Time has flown!

It is hard to see in the pic, but what she has on her head is a princess crown that we bought for 6 bucks at Party City. And we lost it about an hour later. Good thing we got this super awesome pic of it, because she was upset when it was gone!

Josh and all the balloons. I told him to pose like that. And he did. I bet he didn't know I was going to put it on the internet for everyone to see either!! Haha! What he doesn't know won't hurt him! :)

Another pic of the lost crown. And her princess balloons. Boy is she spoiled.

Alyssah and the Space Alien Menu. She thought it was so funny!

Josh playing games. He was excited when we got coins to play games!

Jake posing too. :)

Alyssah was excited to play, even though I didn't actually give her any coins. She was happy to pretend. For a while anyways.

She rode on this ride 2 times. It really is dumb too. But she was thrilled to ride it! I love her so much! I am so proud of her.

Jake and Alyssah on the roller coaster ride. I took a video of it, and it is hilarious to see them on this silly ride, but they loved it! And wanted to go again. I told them no, and explained that they don't get tickets for it. And I am not sure why I say that, because when you turn in your tickets you get really stupid prizes, and prized that either break or end up in the garbage within a day or so of coming home. So I really should encourage the rides instead. Silly me!

They look so much alike here!

On a snow mobile! They were excited for it!

My sweet 4 year old!

We won the jackpot! 121 tickets! And that didn't get us much at all!

The next day, Alyssah's cake and presents. She was getting excited for her party to start!

Blowing daddy kisses!

Alyssah and Kenzie talking about her cake and how Alyssah will get the big princess part!

Alyssah's Princess and the Frog cake. She LOVED it!

We were all singing happy birthday to her! She loved the attention!

Blowing out the candle. She did good, and didn't need help at all!

I love this picture of her!

She did get the princess part of the cake! It was A LOT of cake but after all she is the birthday girl! And she loved it!

Showing Daddy the part of cake she gets!

Alyssah and her best friend Kenzie! I love how much they love each other!

Alyssah and all her presents! :)

She got her barbie movie that she wanted!

And "A boy barbie!" That is what she said!

The mermaid barbie, boy mom was good to her!

Berkley was trying hard to help out!

Auntie Steph treated her good too! She was so spoiled with all the presents she got! She loved them all!

Auntie Sue got her more Polly Pockets! She loves them a lot!

Her Erica Barbie that goes with her princess Annelise Barbie. She loves playing with them too!

All the cards she got. People must think she likes girly princess things.

Her huge balloon bouquet

She was on her lip gloss cell phone. Notice she put all the lip gloss on. It stained her face too. The next day at church she had it on her face still.

I made cupcakes for her birthday party at school. They were strawberry pink with pink frosting and pink sprinkles. For my pink girl!

She looked so cute on her birthday!

I love her so much! I hope her 4th birthday was awesome!

Shooting Club

Mark got the boys involved in a shooting club this winter and spring. It was really good for them and Mark said the boys have good aim. They love it!

Jake taking aim, for only being 7, Mark says he is really good!

The club suppied the air rifles, and the kids like using them.

Josh is really good, almost always getting on target everytime! I think we will have some good future hunters one day!!

A True Rainbow

We had the most beautiful rainbow here on April 13th. I don't think I have ever seen a full true rainbow ever. Alyssah is the one who saw it first, and she was excited about it. Of course Mark and I grabbed our cameras and went outside and took pictures! They came out really good.


The double rainbow

Josh and Jake were wishing we could go to the end of the rainbow to get the pot of gold!

It was really beautiful!
